Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease the sides of an 8-inch round cake pan and line the base with a round of parchment paper.
  • Make the cake batter by mixing sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl, followed by dry ingredients.
  • Combine wet ingredients in another bowl and mix until smooth.
  • Gently fold wet into dry ingredients until just combined.
  • Spread batter into the pan and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden.
  • Cool for 20 minutes, then transfer to cooling rack.
  • Make the glaze by mixing powdered sugar, yogurt, and lemon juice until smooth. Pour over cooled cake.
  • Grate lemon zest over the glaze while wet and serve.

Notes

Perfectly sweet with a tangy lemon glaze, this cake is great for any occasion.
